Per an Elika retweet. Edit: now 247 reports it too! http://recruiting.scout.com/a.z?s=73&p=8&c=1&nid=5498373 Big, fast kid.

I saw that too, if true it would seem to put the pressure on McNeil and Heuerman. Don't think we'll take more than 2 TEs total.

Wow, I hope this is true. I was just talking to someone about how much more I like this kid than mcneil or heuerman and that I was amazed that we weren't more involved with him.

Just checked him out on twitter. Looks like this is real per congratulatory tweets from some of his followers.

"@MarcusBeeezy: My phone just blew up about my commitment. Word spreads fast!"

Confirmed

Wow! Has he even been to campus? In any case, looks to be a great pick up, 4* across the board, 3rd ranked TE by Rivals and 247, 7th ranked TE on Scout. Welcome aboard Mr Baugh!

btw/ imo this leaves McNeil on the outside looking in.

Awesome, unexpected to announce at this time but very cool. Glad he's a Buckeye.

Kids has a huge stide and appears to be pretty quick on his feet. Nice hands too. Solid.

wow wonder if they'd take 3 TE craziness didn't see this one coming

Not too often we are grabbing recruits from my end of the country. Looks like a great catch.

Love it!

With 4 already on scholarship, and only one being an upperclassmen I wouldn't think they take 3 this class. Especially with the limited schollies up for grabs. Seems like mcneil is more interested in playing the recruiting game, looks like he might be the odd man out depending on hueurmans anniuncement here in two weeks.

Adam puts his 2 cents out there:

You heard it here first... The Big 10 is the new League of the Tight End

UpNorthBuckeye on 10 Apr 2012 - 5:59pm #

Baugh has close to the same talent as Breneman imo and I like him more than either Heuerman or McNeil. This is a very good surprise!

He hasn't even visited. #HurricaneUrban

Baugh is clearly one of the best TE's in the country; #1 TE in Cali.; #9 overall. This is certainly a pleasant surprise. IMO, I think Heuerman is in; McNeil out. With Heuerman announcing the 27th with his brother there, I think it's inevitable that he'll be official in 17 days.
